I know one person who had a low BMI, 35 exactly... She has lost a great deal of weight, some think she looks unhealthy and is to thin and now she has hypoglycemia. She needs to eat constantly to take care of that. I guess it's how you plan on taking care of yourself. It's not just losing weight, but eating right and exercising to keep yourself healthy. Do it for the right reasons, HEALTH should be the ONLY reason. Vanity will get you into trouble. The best of luck to

you.

I had a BMI of 35, which is obese, and I didn't see it as low. After 6 weeks I have lost 15kgs (33 pounds) and my BMI is down to 29 (overweight). I had very bad knee pain and was looking at 2 knee replacements. Now, my pain has gone and I comfortably walk 4 miles a day. It was worth it and I would do it again. Good luck with your surgery.

I was so glad to read that the surgery has helped you knee pain. I have back pain and now added to that is knee pain, also facing surgery if I do not get this weight off. Lots other signs, blood sugar and cholesterol creeping up, still normal but I can see what is happening. Great encouragement, thanks.
